20120023037 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FACILITATING AGGREGATION OF SOCIAL CREDITS - Various embodiments are directed to systems and methods for facilitating the aggregation of carbon reduction credits resulting from finance loans financing the purchase of energy technology. For example, a credit aggregator may receive from a finance institution estimate parameters describing a loan type. The credit aggregator may calculate a value of a carbon reduction credit associated with each loan of the loan type considering the estimate parameters and display the value to the finance institution. In addition, the credit aggregator may receive bid data and booking data from the finance institution. When a credit is booked, the credit aggregator may receive from the finance institution periodic indications of a status of the intervention technology. | 01-26-2012 |

20090099884 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING FRAUD BASED ON FINANCIAL RECORDS - An approach is disclosed for detecting fraud in financial records of a network subscriber. Financial records are received and impersonal data are extracted. Financial record data are processed to conform to a normalized format. Normalized records can be correlated into groups linked to respective sources such as, for example, an individual, a business entity, or a healthcare practitioner. Digits contained in this data are analyzed to determine a pattern that is indicative of fraud. An alert, to the fact that fraud has been detected with respect to an identified plurality of records if such determination has been made, is then generated. | 04-16-2009 |

20140159884 | VEHICLE SAFETY SYSTEM FOR MANDATORY DRIVER INSPECTION TO ENSURE THAT PASSENGERS HAVE ALL DISEMBARKED - An improved vehicle safety system for transport operators designed to require the driver of a passenger vehicle to fully check the entire vehicle before exiting, thereby ensuring that no passenger is left behind. The driver is required to turn a key in the switch located at the back of the vehicle to disable the alarm. This keyed switch absolutely ensures driver compliance, much more so than conventional timers with a disable button. The system is implemented with simple and reliable relays and other components. | 06-12-2014 |

20140315262 | PROCESS FOR MAKING HMF AND HMF DERIVATIVES FROM SUGARS, WITH RECOVERY OF UNREACTED SUGARS SUITABLE FOR DIRECT FERMENTATION TO ETHANOL - Hydroxymethylfurfural is made from an aqueous hexose sugar solution, especially from a high fructose corn syrup product. By rapidly heating the sugar solution to the elevated temperatures involved as well as rapidly cooling the resultant product mixture, a limited per-pass conversion to HMF is obtained; correspondingly, however, the overall exposure of the HMF that is formed to acidic, elevated temperature conditions is also limited, so that byproducts are reduced. Separation and recovery of the products is simplified, and levels of HMF and other hexose dehydration products known to inhibit ethanol production by fermentation are reduced in the residual sugars product, to an extent whereby the residual sugars product is suited to be directly fermented to ethanol or for other uses. | 10-23-2014 |
